Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for treating discolored natural diamond, especially Type IIa diamond and Type IaA/B diamond with nitrogen as predominantly B centers, for improving its color. The method includes preblocking and preshaping a discolored natural diamond to prevent its breakage in a high pressure/high temperature (HP/HT) press, placing said discolored natural diamond in a pressure transmitting medium which is consolidated into a pill. Next, the pill is placed into a HP/HT press at elevated pressure and elevated temperature within the graphite-stable or diamond-stable range of the carbon phase diagram for a time sufficient to improve the color of said diamond. Finally, the diamond is recovered from said press. Colorless and fancy colored diamonds can be made by this method.

Abstract: The utilization of a central processing unit during a sampling time interval is determined by measuring a time quantum within the sampling time interval during which a central processing unit clock signal is active within a processor core of the central processing unit. The total number of cycles of the central processing unit clock signal that are applied to the processor core and the period of the central processing unit clock signal are used to determine the time quantum. The utilization may then be expressed in terms of a ratio of the time quantum to the total time interval.

Abstract: A method of recovering data for use in a receiver that simultaneously receives a plurality of code division multiple access data signals, each data signal experiencing a similar channel response. A combined signal over the shared spectrum in a time slot is received and sampled. The combined signal comprises the plurality of data signals. The sampled signal is used to estimate the similar channel response, and a channel response matrix is constructed. A channel correlation matrix is constructed based in part on the estimated channel response matrix. A fast Fourier transform (FFT) decomposition of a circulant matrix approximation of the channel correlation matrix, and the sampled data signals, are used to determine a spread data vector. The spread data vector is despread to recover data from the matrix.

Abstract: A shear valve assembly comprises a pair of valve pads (10, 20) having opposing planar surfaces (21, 22) supported for relative sliding engagement. Each valve pad defines a plurality of liquid pathways by which a liquid can be passed from one pad to the other. The planar surface of one of the valve pads has an open channel formed therein, such channel having dimensions to accommodate a prescribed volume of liquid. Liquid is introduced into such channel via a first pair of pathways formed in the other valve pad, and liquid is dispensed from the open channel by a second pair of pathways that are brought into alignment with the channel during sliding movement between the valve pads. The valve assembly is particularly useful in blood analyzing instruments for isolating and dispensing relatively minute volumes (of the order of microliters) of whole blood for analysis.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un compresseur à pistons axiaux alimentant en air un circuit pneumatique de véhicule, de camion poids lourd le plus souvent, par l'intermédiaire d'une pluralité de pistons (24) logés dans un bloc stationnaire (22), pistons dont le mouvement est commandé par un plateau oscillant (34). Les pistons (24) tournent à vide lorsque le plateau oscillant (34) est en positon neutre, c'est-à-dire lorsque la pression à laquelle il sont soumis dans le bloc-cylindres vient compenser une poussée exercée par un actionneur (41) sur le plateau oscillant (34) situé dans un plan perpendiculaire à un arbre d'entraînement (12). Le plateau oscillant (34) s'incline lorsque la pression sur les pistons (24) diminue. Par voie de conséquence, l'actionneur (41) se déploie vers le plateau oscillant (34) et exerce une pression supérieure à la pression réduite imposée aux pistons (24), faisant que le plateau oscillant (34) imprime un mouvement de va-et-vient aux pistons (24).
